11:01 am
from a new center here in moscow this is with the online on the screen twenty four hours a day the u.n. security council is holding an emergency meeting after north korea carried out a third nuclear test in defiance of international sanctions russia is among those to condemn the move which pyongyang says was in response to outrageous u.s. hostility details now from parties in the. so far strong words from foreign minister sergei lavrov concerning this test by north korea urging the u.n. security council to respond immediately however at the same time warning that caution needs to be taken and escalation needs to be prevented we do this but i
11:02 am
would like to stress that north korea's nuclear test deserves condemnations we hold the move will not be used as a pretext to build up a military presence around the korean peninsula last we believe that flexing military muscles in the region is extremely dangerous this as north korea is threatening further measures the reclusive state is saying this is only the beginning the first of several responses to what they call outrageous hostility coming from washington now the main concern is that this puts north korea one step closer to building a nuclear warhead small enough to mount on a not long range missile capable of reaching the united states and so we're seeing and will continue to see strong reaction in the international community you have countries like russia pushing for dialogue and diplomacy and then partners in the last pushing for strong action what is the right way it's not for me certainly to answer it's a question that's on many people's mind is how do we go further and actually get something done this is a longstanding issue today's news of course was explosive really the past to change
11:03 am
the situation certainly that's what's expected to be on the table at the u.n. security council and let's not forget that many people are looking at this as a direct message from new leader kim jong un to president obama just hours before he gives the state of the union address and sort of the president obama is going to react to this and most likely it's going to be by once again threatening sanctions and further isolation and the big question is is that enough to want to tear north korea from its nuclear ambitions and secondly is it safe if the reclusive state isn't fact advancing its nuclear capabilities. and it's now in there with the latest on north korea's nuclear test and we got a live timeline to keep you up to date on all the latest reactions and developments on that issue on our web site r.t. dot com it's online all the time. so the u.n. security council is meeting in new york to decide what to do about north korea

specialist tim beal thinks that sanctions are useless and only negotiations have a chance of working. don't know anyone really in the. elite really thinks so you know will. they say in a tone they think that it's really uncertain no country really changes honestly under sanctions you know the challenge of you really what is being required of them is worse than the sanctions and that was the case because so north korea in the sense couldn't constrained it you could acquiesce to american muslims. but that in fact narrow allies would be worse than what the americans can do to them a sanctions so they will be first severe and their will first appear until the americans until the negotiations over. that one who has a lot of matter. iran has also condemned the north korean nuclear test calling for

channels the prosecutor general intention of january i said they were terrorists carry on that they would be arrested if they were caught red handed our team managed to secure interviews with this members of the secret organization. the black bloc is an idea that came about as a reaction to the negligence of our peaceful demands and also as a reaction against the oppression of the interior ministry which receives orders from the regime we stand against the oppressive and tyrant regime we call upon the interior ministry to deliver justice for those who have been killed and we will continue our demands until they are met our actions are in self-defense we are protecting ourselves but have never attacked anyone we will always be present in egypt even after or demands are met however we will take on a different form the aim behind our presence is to prevent injustice in any form no one listens to our demands and the proof is the number of people who are being killed but of course we had much to mock at this stepping down of the ouster of

hosni mubarak this of course devolved into clashes by the presidential palace much take us was thrown up protest as he responded with molotov it's similar protests occurred around the country down south in the seats and now we have reports creating egypt's second city in alexandria although. the focus of the class was definitely as is most weeks by the presidential palace an indication that protesters attending to more violent means to push the regime to fulfill their demands. under the new egyptian constitution the black bloc is considered a violent group ramsey brute and author who writes extensively about the middle east thinks organizations like this because the country is so polarized. for the last two years egypt has not been allowed to have a strong central government that is capable of pushing the political process forward and thus the economy of the country the social cohesion and everything else as a result you have this huge vacuum and this polarization and that is allowing egyptian
11:09 am
society to be open for exploitation what has been happening is not exactly a popular of unified popular uproar against the addictive term but rather a political polarization that has swept through the country for the last two years reaching the point of both sides justifying violence against one another and as it is you have this this increasing number of casualties some of it indeed due to police brutality and there is a possibility that in fact that the are outside those who are trying to further fuel to the fire that is already. taking over egypt at least in the urban centers from cairo to boresight it's a phenomenon that i think resulted from the frustration disenfranchisement and just the general feeling of betrayal that the youth of egypt are feeling right now the
11:10 am
issue is not the black bloc in particular but why would the even appeal to the youth of egypt in the first place unless there was that vacuum and there was that the need that was it created by the lack of sensuality and the lack of confidence in the political process in egypt with her coming from the government or from the so-called opposition. still ahead in the program a magnet for migrants the u.k. is attracting more than any other european countries according to the latest statistics it's a multicultural. white british are becoming a minority report and that is coming up very shortly for you. also still to come a big speech with little space for some crucial issues president obama prepares the state of the union address focusing on the prosperity of the average american not that the average drone strike that's an expert opinion in the break.

a step down in the six centuries the director of the national secular society keith porter's word says there must be more to the official explanation. i think the dock trial side has been an absolute catastrophe for the church it's actually lost. its authority in many parts of the world when you say that you're going to. oppose politicians trying to bring in say same sex marriage laws and you invest or your authority on that and then you lose as if as effectively happened in those important catholic countries like spain portugal brazil. and about to happen indeed in england and scotland in france then you actually lose the your authority it's more than just losing the fight so that's been a catastrophe for the church and church attendance has declined it in amazing rate
11:26 am
and i think the child abuse scandal has been something that pope benedict has never recovered from he's been involved in it personally through the c.d.f. prefecture for twenty five years and in fact he's brought more into the vatican and tried to cover it up more and more and more so i think his his papacy will be seen as a major setback and a very bad papacy for the church. well that brings up to date for the moment i'll be back with a news team with wolf in about thirty five minutes from now in the meantime the ins and outs of the world of big money are under the microscope next on r.t. in because the ripples stay with us for that if you can't.

some countries want oil but that's kid stuff who needs oil when you could secure the world's largest supply of trucker dero soda located exclusively in sweden and meeting sweden for absolutely no logical reason is a possible you say well supreme commander of the swedish armed forces general sphere guru and son must have watched red dawn too many times because he thinks the russians are a common general durance and declared that if invaded by russia sweden wouldn't be able to last a week against the onslaught therefore sweden must immediately join nato he said that currently it is not quite possible to invade sweden but due to the two thousand and eight war with georgia it is possible for russia to somehow push through established european borders bring their forces up to sweden's gates
11:28 am
putting the generals country in danger but guess what according to your own council of the european union georgia started the war so by that logic if the two thousand and one with georgia is the example of the future then don't kill russian peacekeeping troops and you'll have nothing to worry about but general goran so also made the point that president putin is rearming the russian army hinting at a threat well being heavily armed to defend yourself is a bad scary thing then joining up with nato seems to be pretty hypocritical if the people of sweden want to join nato well that is their choice but they shouldn't be tricked into having their taxpayers pay for their sons to die in afghanistan based on totally. biggest arguments that make no sense but that's just my opinion.
